About this app

Yandex.Key is an authenticator generating one-time passwords (OTP) for Yandex, Google, GitHub, Dropbox, Vk.com, and other services with two-factor authentication (2FA). To log in to Yandex, enter this one-time password instead of your regular password, and to sign in to other services, with your normal password.

— Data protection
Yandex.Key safeguards your account from being hacked and your personal information from being stolen. One-time passwords will be available only to you, on your mobile device.

— Security standards
Yandex.Key supports two-factor authentication (or two-step verification) on all services using RFC 6238 and RFC 4226, except for services which only use sms.

— Backing up
Back up the data in Yandex.Key on Yandex's servers, to use in case something happens to your device. It's secure: you backup is encrypted using a password that only you know.

I got new phone, trying to restore keys from the cloud - receiving message that no keys found. Wrote to support - they said "its storage period has expired. The backup copy is valid for a year from the date of creation or last use", you removed my keys!

Currently, the backup copy is valid for a year from the moment it was created or last used. We’ll inform the developers about the suggestion to increase the backup copy storage period. If you need help restoring access to your accounts, contact us at [key@support.yandex.ru](mailto:key@support.yandex.ru)

This app doesn't synchronize with Yandex apps in my same smartphone. So I have to login manually in Yandex Key. However, the explanation is not clear. How can I scan QR code shown in my smartphone by same smartphone camera?? Impossible. Is this app designed only to transfer accounts in old smartphone? We need 2 smartphones? Unfortunately, Yandex mail app doesn't allow me to change Login method nor add a phone number. I can do nothing. Moreover, Yandex key nullifies to login by own password ...

It's OK for now; reliable with extra features compared to Google auth; may need something more secure once minimal witness protected
